Making Connections

We make claims everyday, I say I’m tired at least once every morning, and that right there is a claim. But we don’t always provide evidence or ask why, or why not. The difference between this conversation and the world around us is that people don’t always care to ask why, or to ask people to give us evidence. The connection that they have is that we make claims everyday, everybody does it. We don’t always notice it, but its there. The thing that I have learned from this class is that to be a scholar is more than getting information, its having that information and digging deeper, going beyond a search engine or a textbook.
